Para Canoe
Para Canoe features two types of boats: the kayak and the va'a. Athletes propel the kayak with a double-bladed paddle, while the va'a is an outrigger canoe and employs a single-blade paddle. Sprint races occur on 200m flatwater and are competed in heats for each disability classification.

The athlete in the foreground, wearing a white long sleeve shirt and sunglasses, is in kayak number 7. The competitors are captured in mid-stroke, creating splashes as their paddles hit the water.](/content/dam/latwentyeight/paralympic-sports/mobile/PLYCanoeMobile.jpg)
